Why Would Barack Obama Try To Stall Our Troop Withdrawal From Iraq? I thought he wanted our troops out immediately. Is Obama trying to PLAY politics with our troops' lives...
According to Iraqi Foreign Minister Hoshyar Zebari, Obama made his demand for delay a key theme of his discussions with Iraqi leaders in Baghdad in July.
"He asked why we were not prepared to delay an agreement until after the US elections and the formation of a new administration in Washington," Zebari said in an interview.
